Judgement reserved in Carney appeal
Lawyers for a Dublin man convicted of strangling his partner of seven years told the Court of Criminal appeal today that it was “unprecedented” for the jury at the original trial to have been shown photographs of the victim’s body.
Stephen Carney (aged 35) had pleaded not guilty to murdering twenty-seven-year-old Amanda Jenkins following a row over cannabis smoking at Anna Livia Apartments, James' Street, Dublin 8 between October 5 and 6, 2007.
